MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

A method of processing a handover request from a base station controller (BSC) of a GSM (Global System for Mobile communication)-type network. The method comprises the steps of passing a handover request with GSM-type parameters from a base station controller (BSC) through a Master Switching Center (MSC) of the GSM-type network to a UMTS core network (CN) and to a Radio Network Controller (RNC) of the UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) network, translating the GSM-type parameters to UTRAN parameters in the Radio Network Controller (RNC), and allocating UTRAN resources in response to the translated parameters.

主权项

1. User Equipment (UE) for a Universal Mobile Telecommunication system (UMTS) arranged to communicate over both a GSM-type network and the UMTS network, the UE comprising:
means for receiving a UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network (UTRAN) parameter via the GSM-type network, wherein the UTRAN parameter comprising a list of at least one radio link, and wherein the list is set in the UMTS network; and means for establishing a RRC (Radio Resource Control) connection after receiving the UTRAN parameter, wherein the list is used to transfer communication between the UE and the GSM-type network to the UMTS network.
